💰Here is a money drill designed to refine your bat path, improve spacing, and enhance the direction of your. The ultimate goal? To consistently hit through the inside half of the ball and drive it through the big part of the field

**Drill Overview:**

1️⃣ Set Up Your Path

- Put sticks, bats or markers way inside to create a visual path for your swing.

- This setup helps you focus on creating space and maintaining a consistent hand and barrel path through the sticks.

2️⃣ Focus on the Inside

- The drill emphasizes an exaggerated feel of getting to the inside of the ball and driving through it.

- Avoid opening up your shoulders prematurely, which can cause you to swing around the ball.

3️⃣ Maintain Spacing and Direction

- Keep good spacing with your body and ensure your hand path is directed correctly.

- This helps the barrel follow through naturally, promoting true ball flight back to the middle of the field.

❌ Avoid Common Mistakes

- Steer clear of side-to-side movements that lead to hooks, topspin, or flares.

- Focus on hitting the ball with a clean, direct path to maintain control and power.

✔️ Variations to Try

- Bottom Hand, Top Hand, and Two-Hand Swings

- Practice with each hand separately and then together to build strength and coordination.

- Incorporate Different Tosses

- Use off-angle tosses, overhand throws, and machine work to challenge your consistency and adaptability.

By incorporating these elements into your practice routine, you'll develop a more consistent and adjustable swing. Remember, consistency, so keep working on your spacing and direction to master your bat path!
